Drive-By Mix: Meandering The New Stuff

I was reviewing a number of different things for some posts today, but I thought I'd do them all in one, just to save some time and space. Here goes!

1. Microsoft Live: Um... guys, what are you doin? It seems like Microsoft is trying to integrate the power of it's great new plug-ins, and what is currently MSN. It's becoming more of a "Yahoo-a-like" but not exactly. I'll be curious to see what "Office Live" does, as I think there is greater benefit there.

2. Sony's Media Manager: Great idea! It's just a terrible shame that they decided to convert the formats of the files so that they are "friendly" with the PSP. I like the idea of being able to move my stuff to the PSP (which is actually my son's but he never plays with it, so I'm going to steal it!). Of course, I'd be lost without a laptop and EVDO. But I've been watching the grumblings and kudos of the many other bloggers out there. I'm going to have to lean on the side of caution with this one, as I am not sure if this is great to kind of a pain. We'll see... [UPDATE]: So, is it me, or why doesn't the Media Manager (which boasts the ability to transfer RSS feeds to the PSP) transfer feed text to the PSP? Why can I only transfer Podcasts and VideoCasts? What the heck is with that? I found MioPlanet's Media Box to help transfer actual feeds to the PSP. Am I missing something? Bizzare!

3. Laser Pool Cue: 'nuff said.

More to come!
